This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a challenge from one of my readers. The patterns are a combination of engineering and bead artistry but the engineering is done for you so you get the fun of watching your flowers bloom one bead at a time. So for Victoria and all the other flower-loving bead artists around the world, this one's for you! The flowers in this book are three dimensional, complete on all sides including stems, bracts, and some leaves. They can also be made without the stems for a flatter application. Flowers include Purple Passion Flower, Carnation, Blue Aster, Gaillardia (also called Blanket Flowers), Bright Lights variety of Cosmos, Nasturtium, Lilac, Seashell Cosmos in either single color or bi-color, Columbine, and Snap Dragon. All flowers are shown on the back cover or look inside for the Table of Contents. The designs have detailed instructions and are fully illustrated with over 300 color photographs and diagrams. All designs are original and have not been previously published in any other venue. All flowers are approximately life size when made with size 11/0 round seed beads. Size 15/0 round seed beads are also used for shaping, to smooth edges, and for some of the more delicate parts where 11/0 are just too big. A good light and a magnifier help a lot with the smaller details if needed. Or if you just can't work with tiny beads you could replace the 11/0 beads with 8/0 and the 15/0 with 11/0; you will just get bigger flowers. Glass beads can be heavy so wire is used as an armature in the stems and a few flower parts. A word of caution: this book is for the serious beader! If you love those magazine articles about making a necklace this afternoon and wearing it out for dinner, this book is not for you. You cannot start a bridal bouquet on Friday and have it ready for a Sunday wedding. That is not to say you must be an advanced beader. If you have some patience and can follow detailed directions, you can make these flowers. Basic peyote stitch instructions are NOT covered in this book. You need to know even and odd count, increasing and decreasing within rows and at the end of rows. This book was a labor of love; hope you like it.

Book excerpt: Bead embroidery created by the Indigenous peoples of the Columbia River Plateau region of the Pacific Northwest is poorly understood and underappreciated by academia and most aficionados of Indigenous North American art. As a result, the genesis of the three main Plateau beadwork traditions--geometric, floral, and pictorial--is often assigned to outside influences. Historic geometric designs are thought to reproduce the work of Plains-dwelling Crow (Apsáalooke) people. Plateau beadwork with floral motifs is believed to draw its inspiration from decorative items created and worn by Woodlands and Great Lakes people who were employed in the 19th-century Columbia River fur trade. Plateau pictorial beadwork is often considered kitsch or folk art, and many casual observers believe that it was generally made for sale to outsiders. All three assumptions are incorrect.During a lifetime collecting Plateau floral and pictorial beadwork, Walla Walla, Washington, resident Fred L. Mitchell has amassed the premier collection of that material. Over time, he has sought to "trade up" and acquire objects that be believes have maximum visual appeal. His collection has become noteworthy not just because of its size, but also because of its quality and diverse subject matter. This text provides an overview of his encyclopedic collection and it is a basic reference tool for readers who are interested in the interior Pacific Northwest and its history and in Indigenous beadwork as an art form.
